Kenorland: Grindatron's Return! Grindatron makes its return to Kenorland this month, with it's usual array of challenges! How this works: every four hours, you need to provide a target block or item at spawn.

Some balance and improvement changes have happened since last time: Gliding with an elytra will cut your movement energy usage by 75%. The daily connecti ...
